| | Singles (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Singles soundtrack included music (and cameos) from key bands from the Seattle music scene of the time, such as Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden and grunge favorite, Tad Doyle (lead vocalist of the Seattle bands Tad and Hog Molly). | | | The soundtrack is sometimes considered to have helped open the door to the explosive popularity of Seattle grunge music in the early 1990's, although Nirvana had their main success a year earlier with the multiplatinum record Nevermind. | | | Ironically Nirvana was the only major grunge band of the time to not appear on the soundtrack. |

| | Meridian Magazine :: Arts :The R.M. Shows Improvement - 2.5 Stars |
| | As much as The Singles Ward was trashed for its amateur use of cameos as jokes, it lent a kind of charm to the film that I think those in its intended audience actually enjoyed. | | | The Singles Ward was simply stuffed with cameos of LDS celebrities, and a number of the jokes in the film could only be understood if you recognized that celebrity. | | | While The R.M. still has a number of cameo appearances, these cameos are woven much more carefully into the fabric of the film, and really, it didn't matter that it was Jazz owner Larry H. Miller or BYU football coach Gary Crowton delivering the line or just another actor with a speaking part. |

| | Paul Westerberg, who wrote and performed the theme song "Dyslexic Heart" for the film's soundtrack, was formerly a member of the seminal rock band the Replacements. | | | The Seattle music scene is the backdrop for this tale of single twentysomethings trying to find themselves and each other in the 1990s. | | | The Seattle music scene is the ideal backdrop for Cameron Crowe's (SAY ANYTHING, JERRY MAGUIRE) chronicle of the lives of single twentysomethings in the 1990s. |

| | DVD Times - Singles |
| | It’s possible that Singles was shot in Super 35 and then released to cinemas in 1.85:1 (as were quite a few films of around that time), but I’ve yet to find any reference source which backs that up. | | | The first outtake involves Steve: he calls on Linda to find that she doesn’t live at her address anymore (featuring a cameo from Debi Mazar); he wanders past a newsstand (which is still in the final film), and has a fantasy episode where the magazine covers “talk” to him. | | | Singles is a typical Warners back-catalogue release: good transfer and sound, but minimal extras. |

| | Westerberg also wrote the score for the film, with light and memorable themes based on the two songs which he wrote for the soundtrack. | | | Later, when actually filming the scene, Allen decided to darken its tone. | | | The basic theme of Allen's latest is simply "Love fades." In the world which he has filmed, if you find someone who deeply interests you, you will not end up with them, and if you somehow manage to be with them, your interest in them will wane. |

| | Every Mormon character in the film is pushed to the limit of absurdity: the dweeb who aggressively seeking a mate with bluntness, the overly perky assertive female, the very holy Elders' Quorum president, and the list goes on and on...and on. | | | In addition to a talented cast, the film fostered a unique soundtrack of church songs rearranged primarily by local Utah bands. | | | While controversy continues because of its release, it is still simply a story of an awakening. |

| | The Singles Ward (2002) |
| | The entire film was poorly dubbed and made watching mouths while listening to their voices very irritating. | | | The soundtrack was the best part of the movie, but poking fun at the nonsense that goes on in singles wards was also amusing. | | | This lack of professionalism was surpassed only by the cameos of Mormon celebrities who have no business acting. |

| | Crowe is clearly a music lover (indeed, he was once a writer for Rolling Stone) and rather than use songs that are just popular at the time, he chose a number of tracks that had a lyrical relationship with the storyline. | | | If you are an original fan of grunge, or have just discovered it 10 years on, you will also enjoy spotting the cameo appearances from Eddie Vedder amongst others. | | | One-time Rolling Stone journalist Crowe, ever aware of pop trends, lovingly details a society newly beguiled by slackers, answerphones, self-analysis, the coffee-house fetish, post-AIDS safe sex and, most importantly, grunge music--Smashing Pumpkins, Mudhoney and Jane's Addiction pepper the soundtrack, while various Pearl Jam players cameo as members of the film's fictional grunge wannabes Citizen Dick. |

| | Crowe has said he envisioned "Singles" as a celluloid album, and like an album, one comes away remembering some parts more fondly than others. | | | They share a common address and a common unrest, which may be why Crowe builds the film on an unconventional, episodic structure that appropriates everything from flashbacks to camera-confessionals. | | | Crowe was a writer for Rolling Stone and other publications from his teen years on, and there are lots of small touches in "Singles" that bespeak his appreciation for rock culture. |
